character feminine strong
My character had to be really earthy, really grounded, feminine and strong and confident,
loyalty character responsibility
Never before was it as incumbent upon every members to restate loyalty and exemplify fraternal obligation by consistent life and unimpeachable character. But these must be reinforced by a growing consciousness of the responsibilities that Alpha Phi Alpha faces in the world today, where, if ever the problems which beset us are to be solved and a way of deliverance discovered, it must be by the application of those principles upon which we are founded.
characters genre great women
The sci-fi genre just happens to have a lot of really great characters for women.
characters draw genre good people project work
I've just always loved really good projects. The things that draw me into a new project have very little to do with genre and have more to do with the characters I'll be playing, the people I'll get to work with and things like that.

What's great about music is it takes so many kinds of people, including me. Everybody is in a different place.

The show is different every night, because I never write a setlist.
artists benefit break came dawn grassroots happen helped sort
I sort of came out at the dawn of the Internet in the mid-90s and I think it helped break my career. I think I was one of the first artists to really benefit from the grassroots swell that can happen online. I don't know if I would have broken out without it.
asleep car fall homeless since
I've been writing lullabies since the beginning. I kind of did it for myself to help myself fall asleep when I really worried, like when I was homeless and I'd fall asleep in my car.
american-musician since
I've been performing on stage since I was six years old.
american-musician respect writers
The writers I respect the most had an undying commitment to a vision.
kinder
There's no wrong you can't make right again, so be kinder to yourself; you know, have fun, take chances. Those bounds.
grounded trying
I was really intimidated. I was really timid. And so a lot of what Ang did with me was trying to get me grounded and I think that's why he had me do tai chi, just trying to get me settled.
amazing creative fantastic high love outlet standard teaching
I would love to write more children's books. There is such a high standard out there for children's books; there are really amazing writers. It is a fantastic creative outlet and such an amazing teaching tool. The thing I love about kids, too, is it is so imaginative and poetic.
I was raised really poor and so was my husband.
